“The field is lower than anything around it so it suffers from flooding every year. This year was worse than previous ones because the severity of rain fall. There's no drainage on the field what so ever.”
Bob Freschi
“We are fortunate in Onslow County that we don't flood very easily, ... We are expecting some minor coastal flooding. We don't expect anything to pose a serious threat to property or people but as always people should be careful driving through ponds on roadways.”
Mark Goodman
“Last year we did have flooding in Cache Valley and Brigham City.”
Brian McInerney
“In the event of a 100-year flood, there is a good probability that the mall site could be under three feet of water. That's the other site we were looking at.”
Jack Foster
“I think the most dramatic difference between the 1997 flood and this year is the fact we never lost power. Folks were able to keep their sump pumps and their flood pumps going and keep the incursion of water to a minimum level.”
Dave Rogness
“This was a minor rain. This was about a five to 10 year average flood.”
Don Heacock
“We were hit with this flood a year ago as a result of Hurricane Ivan and compared to what those folks went through we had nothing, of course we were devastated at the time, but compared to them, we just had nothing.”
